    Finding Literature Heat Capacity Values

    I need to find the heat capacities of CO2 (g), CH4 (g), C3H8 (g) , HCl (g) Al (s) , Ag (s) , Ti (s) if anyone can post a link or let me know what the heat capacities of these substances are I'd greatly appreciate it

    Error in Simple Pendulum experiment

    yes, that is why the mass is able to sway on the arm

    Error in Simple Pendulum experiment

    the set-up utilized a cylindrical mass tied to a fishing cable, swinging around some vertex. as far as I could tell the tension in the cable kept it quite rigid however, we assumed that the mass was similar to a point mass rotating about an axis the error with the assumption was greater...

    Error in Simple Pendulum experiment

    What I mean is that at the high point in the pendulum's trajectory there is a restoring torquing force causing the mass to continue moving in the pendulum trajectory AND IN ADDITION a torquing force causing the cylindrical mass to fall/sway because it's center of mass is no longer underneath its...

    Error in Simple Pendulum experiment

    Homework Statement In Physics lab we performed a simple pendulum with an apparatus that involved a cylindrical mass. We measured the period dependence on mass, amplitude, and length. Throughout our experimentation we assumed that the mass used behaved similar to a point mass. After...
